BOB EVANS CREPES
This is my incredibly easy version of the fruit topped filled crepes served at Bob Evans. I'm not posting the crepe recipe, there's already over 400 posted here, pick one you like. Splenda in place of sugar works just fine. Adjust sugar and cream in filling to taste.

VANILLA CREPES
When I was a little girl, my mother would always make us crepes on Sundays. I also loved the smell of vanilla when my mother would make her cookies. So, I would always ask her to make her cookies, and when she refused, I would take out the vanilla and sit it next to me with the cap open, so that I could breathe the aroma. My mother get a kick out of this, and said, well, if it's that important, we'll add a little vanilla kick, just for you. After the first time she put the vanilla in, there was never a last...it became a tradition.

This French delicacy is extremely versatile, as it can be filled with virtually anything -- fruits, pudding, mousse for desserts as well as vegetables and meats for dinner. No need to add more oil each time unless the pan begins to stick. Freeze extra crepes for later use.

MUSHROOM CREPES WITH CREAM SAUCE
These are very rich and delicious crepes. I made this for my husband for our very first Valentine's Day when we were dating - let's just say that we've been together for over 20 years! This is a recipe from an old 1970's cookbook that myself and my oldest Son still cook from. They are really great and very easy. Enjoy!

- Make sure the skillet is hot before adding the batter. This will help the crepes get a nice golden brown color.
- Pour the batter into the center of the skillet and quickly swirl it around to create a thin, even layer.
- Cook the crepes for about 1-2 minutes per side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Fill the crepes with your favorite fillings and enjoy!
